About Me

My photo
Wendy Burr
I have been a writer on and off for all my life, but have really been serious about it for around 4 years now. I started with novel writing, and still enjoy writing fiction, but when Matthew was diagnosed with Leukemia, I started a blog to keep family and friends updated. Turns out it was also cathartic for me, as his primary care taker, and it will give him a record he can reflect on later in life. I have also begun writing articles on the subject of cancer, and how it affects family life, and hope to find publishing for them in an effort to raise awareness.
